Makeup is just not for the face only it can be used in many ways below the neck. No matter if you want to conceal a tattoo, bruise, vein, or scar, or even make the skin on the body glows, body makeup is what you need. Body makeup can also make the tone of your skin even by creating a smooth and airbrushed finish. Beauty brands have created body foundations that are good enough for the oiliest skin types and can last throughout the day without smudging.
Body foundation formulas are made differently from the foundation you blend onto the face. They have to be sweat-resistant and comfortable to wear all day.

When it comes to shopping for body makeup, you would need to find one that is waterproof, long-wearing, not cakey and smudge-proof.
